The rookie in Ya-Sin led all defensive players in snaps played during the 2019 season. It was a bit of an up and down season but he had some valuable learning experiences. Desir and Moore were behind him—the latter would have had more snaps had he not dealt with an ankle issue the last month of the season.

Tell had some promise but there is a long road of development ahead. Wilson is trending toward being a bust pick while Taylor did well for being an undrafted free agent.
